The Power of Partnership: A Future Without Cancer

It was the gala of all galas — the new Monroeville Convention Center was resplendent for the Hillman Cancer Center Gala, The Power of Partnership: A Future Without Cancer. Pittsburgh’s own Michael Keaton — you know, Batman — flew back into town to emcee, and television and Broadway songstress Kristin Chenoweth wowed the crowd of 650 with her beautiful voice. Honorary chairs Elsie and Henry Hillman and Cathy and Sy Holzer, along with gala chairs Susan and Steve McGalla set the bar high for future fundraisers — the night raised $3.6 million for the Hillman Cancer Center. Hope is alive for a future without cancer, indeed. Photography by Megan Wylie
